Chapter 300 It’s the beginning of another new semester

"Did this classmate cast the Patronus Charm just now, as well as the protection and expulsion of enemies?" A weathered middle-aged male voice said from behind Hermione, "What an incredible magical talent."

While wiping tears, Hermione turned her head and looked back. The person speaking was none other than R.J. Lupin whom they had seen in the last carriage.

"This is just a sequelae after encountering the dementors. Fortunately, I prepared some more before." Lupine took out a large piece of chocolate from his pocket and handed it to Hermione. "It will be good to feed her. of."

He took out two smaller pieces and handed them to Hermione and Luna respectively.

Hermione immediately took the chocolate and broke it into smaller pieces bit by bit.

"Sorry, I have to go ahead and talk to the driver now. I can only find out about the situation from you later. You guys have a good rest here now. We will arrive at Hogwarts in about twenty minutes," Lupine said. After finishing, he closed the sliding door and disappeared into the corridor. The low whisper gradually faded away, "Two Dementors, what on earth are they thinking..."

Hermione sat next to Chang Chu, gently lifted her head to her lap, and fed her small pieces of chocolate bit by bit.

These chocolates had almost immediate results.

After Chang Chu ate the first piece, he immediately felt a warm flow of heat spread from his inner organs to every part of his body. Even his fingers and toes, which were originally stiff and unable to move, could regain control at this time.

She took a deep breath and slowly opened her eyes.

"Little Miss Chu!" Hermione excitedly held Chang Chu's head in her arms, "It's great that you're okay!"

"Even if I was fine before, you will cover me up and cause trouble now." Chang Chu's voice sounded muffled. She stretched out her hand and scratched Hermione's waist, "Help me sit up."

Hermione immediately burst into laughter and helped Chang Chu return to a normal sitting position.

Chang Chu finished the chocolates that Lu Ping had just given piece by piece. After eating the last piece of chocolate, she felt that she was alive again.

"Phew!" Chang Chu let out a long breath, "I finally understand why Wright asked me to practice this magic! It's really a life-threatening feeling!"

Hermione originally wanted to ask Chang Chu what the magic was, but looking at her slightly tired look, Hermione finally did not ask.

During the rest of the trip, the three girls didn't talk much.

It wasn't until they got off the bus from Hogsmeade Station and got on the Thestral carriage heading to the school entrance that the three of them made a sound for the first time, because the people standing guard at the school entrance were not the usual professors, but Two hooded dementors.

After driving forward for a while, the carriage finally stopped in front of the castle.

The three of them walked into the castle together, and when passing by the front hall, they heard a voice.

"Chang Chu, Granger, I want to see you two." It was Professor McGonagall, "Miss Lovegood, you can go to the auditorium first to attend the opening banquet."

Chang Chu and Hermione said goodbye to Luna and walked to Professor McGonagall's side.

"Please wait here for a moment," Professor McGonagall said, "There is another person."

Not long after, Professor McGonagall called Harry over again and ordered Ron to attend the opening party.

Chang Chu, Hermione and Harry followed her through the front hall and up the stairs until they reached the Transfiguration professor's office.

Before the four of them had time to start any conversation, they heard a knock on the door, and Madam Pomfrey hurried in.

"Potter, I heard from Professor Lupin. He said that you seemed a little uncomfortable on the train." Professor McGonagall said.

"I feel fine -" Before Harry could finish his words, he was pulled aside for inspection by an angry Madam Pomfrey.

"As for Miss Chang Chu," Professor McGonagall pondered, "Professor Luping said that you cast the Patronus Charm, expel the enemy, and protect all three high-level protective spells on the train?"

"No," Chang Chu shook his head, "I just cast the unsuccessful patron saint spell, which was just a cloud of silver mist. When facing the dementors, it did not play any effective protective role at all. As for expulsion Protect the enemy and all..."

Chang Chu pulled the skirt necklace out of her clothes. The two pink gemstones on the far right side of the fan-shaped pendant had turned into a pale white color. "They are alchemy tools made by Wright, which provide a protective effect. "

"Oh, it's Wright!" Professor McGonagall looked relieved immediately, "Where did you learn the Patronus Charm? Was it also from Wright?"

"Yes, he taught me this magic during the summer vacation, just so that one day I could be immune to the influence of dementors." Chang Chu said, "But he probably didn't expect that dementors would actually be here. Get on the train and check it out on the first day of school.”

Professor McGonagall didn't care at all whether what Chang Chu said about "Wright teaching her the Patronus Charm during the summer vacation" violated the "Reasonable Restraint of Underage Wizards Act". What she wanted to see more was that when students faced difficulties and dangers, When the time comes, you can have enough ability to cope with the past.

Perhaps in her opinion, Wright teaching Chang Chu the Patronus Charm was indeed a great thing in itself.

At this time, Madam Pomfrey came over with Harry.

"Minerva, although I haven't detected anything wrong with Potter, he has eaten chocolate and feels fine." Madam Pomfrey said while observing Harry's face.

"Do you really feel like you're okay, Potter?" Professor McGonagall asked sternly.

Harry nodded.

"What about you?" Madam Pomfrey turned to look at Chang Chu, "I heard Minerva say that Miss Chang Chu, you seemed to have encountered a little trouble on the train."

"I have also eaten the chocolate given by Professor Lu Ping," Chang Chu said politely, "I feel that my body is very good now."

"Poppi, don't worry. Miss Chang Chu first used the Patronus Charm, and then used a precious alchemy tool to protect herself, Miss Granger and Luo by expelling the enemy and protecting them all. Miss Fugood," Professor McGonagall said to Madam Pomfrey.

"Potter, please wait outside for a while with Miss Chang Chu. I need to talk to Miss Granger about her class schedule." Professor McGonagall stretched out her hand to Chang Chu and Harry, "Then we will meet again Go downstairs to the party."

Within a few minutes, Professor McGonagall came out with a beaming Hermione.

The four of them returned to the auditorium together and met Professor Flitwick who came out holding the Sorting Hat.

Professor McGonagall walked towards the podium alone, while Harry, Hermione and Chang Chu walked towards the long tables of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw respectively.

Dumbledore, who was dressed in finery, waited until everyone sat down and became quiet before speaking.

"Our school will welcome several Dementors from Azkaban this semester. They are sent by the Ministry of Magic to perform official duties. As for the reason, I believe everyone knows it. I will not explain too much here." He Said, "The Dementors will not evacuate the school until Sirius Black is captured again."

"So please understand one thing, when the dementors are still in the school, no one, I mean, no one." Dumbledore glanced at Harry, "No one You are allowed to leave the school without permission, and the invisibility cloak cannot protect you from the dementors' noses."

"I believe that those of you who have experienced Dementors today will definitely take my words to heart."

"Then let us welcome Professor R.J. Lupin, who will be our Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher this year; and Rubeus Hagrid, our Gamekeeper, who is also willing to take on the role of Care of Magical Creatures teacher. "

"Finally, the party begins!"
